Immunogen Description
Mixture of five recombinant constructs containing the entire C-terminal region of human alpha-II spectrin (amino acids 676-2,400).
Immunogen Type
Recombinant protein
Immunogen
SPTAN1 / Alpha Fodrin antibody was raised against mixture of five recombinant constructs containing the entire C-terminal region of human alpha-II spectrin (amino acids 676-2,400). The 9th spectrin repeat also includes a Src-homology 3 domain, and the extreme C-terminus beyond the 20th spectrin repeat contains two EF hand calcium binding motifs. These constructs were expressed in and purified from E Coli.
Preparation and Storage
+4 degree C or -20 degree C, Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC)

(Mixed neuron-glial cultures stained with rabbit antibody to alpha-II spectrin (green) and mouse polyclonal antibody to Nestin (red). The alpha-II spectrin antibody stains numerous axonal and dendritic profiles in these cultures, clearly revealing the submembranous cytoskeleton. Since alpha-II spectrin is specific for neurons in the CNS, the glial cells in this culture are not recognized by this antibody.)

Western Blot (WB)

(Western blots of mouse sciatic nerve extract (lanes 1 and 2) and brain homogenate (3). A prominent band running at 240 kDa represents the intact alpha-II spectrin heavy chain. More minor bands below this likely represent in vivo proteolytic fragments of alpha-II spectrin.)

NCBI Description

Spectrins are a family of filamentous cytoskeletal proteins that function as essential scaffold proteins that stabilize the plasma membrane and organize intracellular organelles. Spectrins are composed of alpha and beta dimers that associate to form tetramers linked in a head-to-head arrangement. This gene encodes an alpha spectrin that is specifically expressed in nonerythrocytic cells. The encoded protein has been implicated in other cellular functions including DNA repair and cell cycle regulation. Mutations in this gene are the cause of early infantile epileptic encephalopathy-5. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]

Uniprot Description

SPTAN1: a cytoskeletal protein which seems to be involved in secretion, interacts with calmodulin in a calcium-dependent manner and is thus candidate for the calcium-dependent movement of the cytoskeleton at the membrane. Capable to forming dimers which can further associate to tetramers.

Product Notes

The SPTAN1 sptan1 (Catalog #AAA248102) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Rabbit Polyclonal to Human SPTAN1 / Alpha Fodrin reacts with Human, Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's SPTAN1 / Alpha Fodrin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistochemistry (IHC - Paraffin), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunofluorescence (IF), Western Blot (WB). ICC (1:500 - 1:1000), IF (1:500 - 1:1000), IHC-P (1:100), WB (1:5000 - 1:10000) Usage: The serum can be diluted to 1:500-1:1000 for immunofluorescence staining and 1:5000-1:10000 for western blotting. On western blots look for a major band at 240kDa, depending on the species. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SPTAN1 sptan1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SPTAN1 / Alpha Fodrin, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
